    Who has fallen pregnant weeks after having a baby?

    Just wanted to know if i should panic.
    I am usually really fertile and get pregnant very easy but with Ella we did IVF beacause of all the stress TTC after losing Abbi so now the stress is gone and we are happy and relaxed i am worried DH's little slip up today will result in a very badly timed accident as i dont want any more children i am done done done after my bloody awful c section never again will i get pregnant intentionally 4 children is enough.
    SHOULD I BE WORRIED?

    i have heard of it happening, but i don't think its time yet for you to start worrying. im really sorry you've had such a rough trot with the birth and everything if you're still BF and haven't got AF back yet, i wouldn't stress too much. all the best xxx

    i too have heard of it happening
    but honestly heard of more women having unprotected sex so soon after bubs and not falling pregnant then falling pregnant (like 7 to 1)
    hope the odds are on your side

    DF and I were extremely naughty after DS was born, I got AF 12 weeks after birth and before that we dtd unprotected a fair few times. I don't think you should worry just yet

    Do a test just to be sure, hun! It's unlikely, but not impossible... I fell pg very soon after DD1 was born, unfortunately (or maybe luckily?) I m/c'd not long after I realised I was pg, it was really hard on us but probably for the best as I was in a similar frame of mind and scared out of my wits about having another baby, especially so soon.
    I hope you've got nothing to worry about, but do a test as soon as you can just to make sure. *hugs* Good luck!

    As the others have said it is possible but unlikely.
    I fell a few months after birth of dd2 with dd3 (there is 11mths between them) but not a few weeks
    You should be fine
